Main pic: An attendance of 12,560 came to MacCumhaill park to witness Donegal defeat Dublin under lights in February.
Work began this week on the first phase of a €500,000 upgrade of MacCumhaill Park in Ballybofey.
Last year, the Sean MacCumhaills club was confirmed for the grant to help make Donegal’s premier GAA ground more sustainable and accessible.
On Monday, a project to retrofit the existing floodlights with state of the art LED lights began.
“In order to ensure the safety of club members, visitors and workers, it will be necessary to restrict access to certain areas of the club over the next few days,” a spokesperson for the club said.
“Days may change as work progresses.”
Today and tomorrow, there will be no access to the area to the rear of AstroTurf pitch, around the North East lighting column. However, the riverside walk will remain open.
From tomorrow until Friday, there will be no access to parking bays on the western side of the main club carpark.
Also, for the rest of the week, there will be no access to the left hand dressing room under the press box.
